Perfect. Practical. Thanks. I lake calling it (the Pali Canon) scripture or the teachings sometimes, & that dictionary link is awesome. I'm going to look all this up myself, but I also am looking for some clarity regarding the relationship of the term "Pali Canon" to the the terms , "Pali Dhamma" & "buddhadhamma." My guess is that Pali Dhamma is simply the Dhamma as understood from the Pali Canon, and buddhadhamma is the "essence" of those teachings.
